Intriguing ... totally!


An intriguing conversation took place this afternoon in a cab on the way back to my office.

Driver: Please put on your seatbelt.
Me: Ok (most of the cab driver don't buckle up themselves and you think they give a damn about your safety)

*we were having typical boring-where-you-work-kind-of-chat when suddenly he commented*

Driver:
I just don't understand why chinese girls are after other races especially the M community, I don't know what are they thinking!
*he sounded quite piss here*
Me: Er maybe there is a lack of available chinese men around ...
Driver: I'm single!
Me: Right!
Driver: I left my wife 5 years ago.
Me: Er why?
Driver: Because she was unfaithful.
Me: Any children from the marriage?
Driver: I have 3 children, all grown up and they are ok with it. Do you know the emotional turmoil you have to go through ah?
Me: But there are a lot of people who stay on for the sake of staying on even if the marriage fails.
Driver: Actually I prefer to stay single all my life but the cat came and scratch at my door! Why the cat must scratched my door?
Me: Er maybe the cat like the look of your door? *me trying to catch up here*
Driver: Hahaha but i tell you ah the emotion disturbance is crazy ... oh shit ... shit!
Me: Now you have left the cat mah ...
Driver: No no no ... this is another cat! You don't get me do you?
Me: *scratching my head now* You mean this is not the cat you left 5 years ago?
Driver: No, this is another cat, not the cat I left ... and before this cat come scratching, also few more cats but I rejected all.
Me: So what makes this particular cat so special you accepted her?
Driver: Because she came scratching at my door! Now I'm in emotional high and low because of this cat! Shit la!
Me: *trying to search for the un-shitty words here* If you don't mind I ask, how old are you?
Driver: I'm 66 and talking to a young girl about my emotional turmoil ... hahaha!
Me: Well ... it's a sharing experience and everything happens for a reason.
Driver: Ya I believe so and I tell you ah, I'm a very religious person. Are you a Christian?
Me: Yes.
Driver: Maybe I'm destined to save this cat lah ... she has lot of problem la, so I think I need to save her soul.
Me: Good for you.
Driver: I tell you ah ... never question God. If the cat is what He sents then just accept it. I asked God you know ... why this cat come scratching at my door. If you follow what He asked to do, then you will get something good in return. Last time my hair used to be all white now it's slowly turning black ... see it?

*he took off his cap and showed me the thinning white hair with new hair growth beneath*

Me: So now from the back you will look like 56?
Driver: No, not 56 but it's 35! I negotiated with God. *I don't know you can do that!* I know you don't believe me but it's the truth.

*okay this chinese uncle who speaks excellent english is really stretching his luck with God me thinks*

Driver: God even told me that I'm going to have twins with this cat!
Me: *at 66 years old?* Right!

*by this time, I've reached office so end of conversation*


So I guess no matter whether you are 16 or 66, when a cat come scratching at your door, there is no escape :)

Quote of the Day - 27 March 2009


"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity." - Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

She is a girl, a lady, a woman


Read this quote from a book, thought of sharing it here :)

"At different times in her life, a woman is like the world."


"From 13 to 18, she's like Africa - virgin territory."


"From 18 - 30, she's like Asia - hot and exotic."


"From 30 - 45, she's like America - fully explored but generous with her resources."


"From 45 - 55, she's like Europe - a bit exhausted, a bit knackered, but still with many places of interest."


"From 55 onwards, she's like Australia - everybody knows it's down there somewhere, but very few will make the effort to find it."

So babes, whatcha think of this? And guys (straight ones obviously), which territory you want to explore the most?

How Do You Know?


How do you know if the person dislikes you from the start?

1) She greets everybody in the office EXCEPT you.
2) You greeted her but all you got in return is a shitty face, totally ignoring you like a hollow man.
3) She organized a company orphanage visit and everybody get to pick their 'kid' EXCEPT you.
4) She distributed company tee to all staff EXCEPT you.
5) She pokes you in front of the boss.

Her details:-
Occupation: Full-time secretary to the boss (standby mode: 24/7), part-time pole dancer, seriously.
Age:
40
Status:
Single and available
Looks:
Definitely charming; give her a broom, a black pointed hat and she looks EXACTLY like Ms W.

So dudes, any takers?



How do you know if you are boomed after 3 months at the new job?

1) When your boss snack on a packet of mamee in the meeting.

2) When Manager #1 slurp a cup noodle in the meeting.

3) When Manager #2 presented a business plan using MS Word on a projector! Er excuse me but there's this application called PowerPoint?

4) When Manager #3 cannot differentiate between 'below' and 'beyond'.

5) When you receive no direction or guidance from your boss on the work. He leaves everything to you just make sure don't screw up!

6) When your boss asked question like, "why am I always so free?" and yet expect the staff to work 12 hours in a day.

7) When all you boss talk about is Man-U and Tiger Woods and he can't pee because of the 2 drops of water on the toilet floor, so everybody must not wet the damn floor! OMG! (btw, it's an unisex toilet).

8) When the head of sales who wears plunging neckline with a 32C cleavage need to steal a subordinate account to increase her own quota.

9) When it's a compulsory to wear the corporate uniform for official function, and the color is ORANGE! The last time I checked, I don't think I work with Sunkist. Duh!

10) When you can't stand the Jurassic PC installed with a freaking Vista, you have a choice of either bring your own notebook to office or stuck with it for the rest of your working life in the company (how about shoving the PC up your @$$hole!).


I. AM. SCREWED. TOTALLY! Oh gawd ...

Handle With Care


A friend is getting married. She is starting a new journey with her chosen man but yet to figure out how to drive the journey from her going to be new home to office -_-

A friend is ending his marriage. Finally a lawyer has been appointed as both sides agreed that nothing can be done to save the marriage and they should move on with their separate lives already.

Both friends are good and kind-hearted person who deserve happily ever after but why someone is getting married and the other is ending it?

Is marriage that fragile at this era? Why our parents and ancestors can be married till death do them apart? Is it because their love is more simple and people today opt for a more complicated life? What happened to the i-will-love-you-forever promises? Spoken without commitment?


What is your definition of love? No relationship is perfect and both sides needs to constantly work towards keeping the relationship alive.

To her, I wish you and hubby a blessed marriage.
To him, I know someday you will find a woman who will truly loves you.

As for myself, I still believe in everlasting love. He is waiting for me ...
